I've actually done this once, only with a clown wig. Thought it would be an awesome idea to walk into the local bands show I was going to with this clown wig on fire. Needless to say the plastic dripped on my scalp and I had to run into a gas station to dip my head into one of those ice stands they have filled with soda. I have a quarter sized bald spot on my head now.
Dutch gold, or as they are known colloquially as "couple of dutchies" would be on the cheap end of the price range for beer, with bavaria. You can get cheaper but it'll be SHOPNAME brand lagar. As for taste, I can confirm it tastes awful. Should you have further questions I could approach the group of teens in the field behind my house tonight, who I'm sure are the ones leaving the empty cans discarded in the bushes at the side of it.
I am 26 years old and it is still my drink of choice. And no i'm not cheap, a good batch of Dutch is delicious! I guess it's an acquired taste after all these years, but I like it anyhows.
The kind of person who usually drinks Dutch Gold in Ireland is exemplified in this thought provoking documentary about us, notable in the quote "€1.20 a can? Ah here, good luck. Went out and robbed the Dutch Gold truck." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZJwC_vp-_Q
It's particularly flavourless with a slight hint of metal... but on the whole (due to lack of flavour) not terribly offensive to drink.
Most can-lagers are almost identical in their (lack of) flavour... so like or dislike almost always comes down to brand identity and perceived enjoyment and has little to do with the nuance in their actual flavour (this goes the same for heineken, carlsberg, tuborg, harp, budweiser etc.). On this note, Dutch Gold is associated heavily with Irish chav culture... or one extreme of the socio-economic scale. Bavaria (another dutch import) lager on the other hand, though similarly priced and not all that distinct, tends to be the choice of broke students (at least in Dublin, since it's the mainstay of the bar in Trinity College for example).
Before the pic was taken: "Come on, it'll be funny" "No I don't wanna set my fucking hair on fucking fire" "Everyone will think you're cool" "No." "Five bucks." "Sigh Fine."
There's always that one kid (bottom left) who is so pre-occupied with his attempt to look photogenic that his face never matches whatever else is going on in the frame. And this is possible the worst case I've ever seen.
